This story struck close to home as I have lived in Denver for 28 years and all the storyline is a great memory in my heart. Everyone did an outstanding job bringing the life of this women and the courage she felt. I feel it would be an honor to know her. I recommend this movie to anyone who thinks they are having a tough time and see how actually well they do have it.
The Calm after the storm
Dawn Anna was a tear Jerker. It brought a lot of things in to perspective as a parent. The family over came a mother's illness to postively making sense of a sensless High School shooting. You could feel the pain that they went through. 2 parents raising Children in this day and time is not easy! But it is even harder for a "SINGLE PARENT". She showed that with love disclipline and determination that it can be done. True stories are so much better than fiction. If you have not watched this watch it with your children, Youth groups etc. Talk to your children, Notice your children, take interest so we can stop the jonesboro and other High School and senless killings among teens. Prayer, Love and disclipline is the key..... Wonderful movie. I hope that a documentary or movie will be done soon to let us know how all the victims and surviors and their families are doing.
Dawn Anna **POSSIBLE SPOILERS**
Dawn Anna is one of the best made-for-television movies I have seen. The movie centers around single-mom Dawn Anna, a subsitute teacher who struggles to support her family financially. She finally lands a wonderful teaching job at a local school. In order to make ends meet, she agrees to coach the girl's volleyball team as well (her two daughters played on Dawn's team at different periods of time). Dawn meets "Bink"-a nice gentlemen that she met at the school. They date, and fall in love. Dawn discovers she has a brain disorder, and with the support of her kids and Bink, she recovers as best as she can. Although she will have lingering effects of the disorder, she continued to coach the volleyball team. The end of the movie shifts it's focus slightly-to Dawn's youngest daughter, Lauren Townsend. Lauren is now in high school, and is captain of the volleyball team. She's a straight A student at the local high school. I would tell you more, but I don't want to spoil the ending for you!
For a movie on "Lifetime," this picture is very high quality, very perceptive. It is a story of how a teenager has to survive with a highly disfunctional, self-centered, drug-addicted mother. Her courage is very exciting to watch, and her tremendous efforts are rewarded in the end. You must see this movie.
